Abstract: Disclosed is a self-wringing flat mop. The mop includes a shaft having an operator end and a cleaning end, a plate disposed at the cleaning end of the shaft and being pivotally connected thereto, and a wringing mechanism. A liquid absorbent member such as a cleaning cover is disposed on the plate. The wringing mechanism includes a wringing handle that is disposed on the shaft and that is axially moveable with respect thereto, and a wringer connected to the wringing handle. When wringing the mop, the wringer handle is moved relative to the axis of the shaft to thereby move the wringer into a position to cover the plate and liquid absorbent member. In this position, the wringer exerts a force on the plate sufficient to compress the liquid absorbent member between the plate and the wringer.

Title: Animal derived from manipulated embryo and preparing method thereof
Inventor: IMAI HIROSHI
IPC: A01K67/027
Filed: 2003-02-27
Abstract: A method of efficiently constructing a reproducible animal by using a totipotent cell having a mitochondrial DNA (for example, wilt type DNA) compatible with the nuclear DNA into its mitochondrial DNA via transfer or substitution; and an animal constructed thereby. In the case where the totipotent cell is an ES cell originating in an inbred strain mouse, it is desirable to employ the tetraploid rescue method. In constructing a chimeric animal, the mitochondrial DNA originating in a totipotent cell of the animal employed is substituted by a wild type mitochondrial DNA by the backcross mating method, the nuclear substitution method or the like and then injected into a tetraploid fertilized egg. Thus, a reproducible inbred strain chimeri c animal is constructed while avoiding the risk of the death of the obtained animal due to respiratory disturbance, etc. immediately after birth. The reproducible inbred strain chimeric animal thus obtained is usable in gene function analyses, animal experiments, etc. without resort to troublesome inbred strain procedures.

Title: Methods and apparatus for utilizing user software to communicate with network-resident services
Inventor: BOND GREGORY W
IPC: H04L12/58
Filed: 2005-01-26
Abstract: Popular operating systems for user devices, such as personal computers (PCs), PDAs, pocketPCs, smartphones, and similar such personal devices, typically come bundled with software that is already installed, maintained and run on a user's computer, namely, a non-specialized HTTP client/web browser and a non-specialized instant messaging client. A device is described which presents a user's instant messaging client and HTTP client/web browser as a unified device for handling real-time user interactions with a network resident application. Since this device represents a network application's interface to a user it is termed a pseudodevice. The pseudodevice, which interfaces with network application software, formats user queries as hyperlinked instant messages that are then sent to the user. The user responds by clicking on a hyperlinked message, which invokes the user's web browser and causes the browser to convey the response as an HTTP request back to the pseudodevice. The pseudodevice adapts communication to the user device depending upon the HTTP requests it receives.

Title: Methods and systems for treating presbyopia via laser ablation
Inventor: LIN J T
IPC: A61B18/20
Filed: 2002-11-12
Abstract: A method for treating presbyopia by performing laser ablation of the sclera involves making incisions into the sclera which are filled in with material which is more elastic than the original scleral tissue when the incisions heal. Such incisions may be placed radially about the eye in the scleral region outside the limbus of the eye. The increased circumferential diameter and flexibility of the treated portion of the sclera, along with the overall greater volume of the eye, can allow for an increase in the accommodation which can be produced in the eye via the action of the ciliary muscles on th e lens and front portion of the sclera.
